"The % Daily Value is the percentage of a nutrient that one serving of the product contributes toward the daily recommended amount."
This is based on a 2,000 calories per day diet.
For example a food label may say 12g of fat = 18% daily value.
This means that 12 grams of fat is 18% of the total 65 grams of fat recommended per day
You can use the percentage to decide if there is a low or high amount of that particular nutrient in one serving of the product.
Low = 5% or less
High = 20% or more
